My yeast stir plate tends to run a bit hot after a couple of hours of constantly running. When I went to check the starter this morning the temp was at 86F. There was some condensation inside the flask. Should I throw it out and start a new one?

First time all grain brewer. Just finished brewing a IPA around 5:00pm. Problem is that when I was cooling the beer did not realized that the inline thermometer out of the therminator was way under its reading. I ended up pitching a yeast starter of a California ale ( wyeast labs) at 56 f...
